SAN Francisco, January 1.-THE crew OF

Of saving the ship was abandoned the cap.
tain and three men attempted TO leave the
ship in a small boat, but as soon as they left
the ships side the boat was capsized by a
heavy sea, and 1t Is believed that they were
drowned. -Four others took to the raft, but
have not since been heard Of. The mate,
Cushmsn, and three Of the crew also left
the ship on a raft, but before they were
picked up one of the men went crazy and
jumped overheard. The other twelve of
the crew stuck to the ship, and, as the sur
yiyors saw her go down, all on board must
have persisted. Three OF the rescued men

twenty-five PAGES, each adversary 10 al.
vance five steps and 10 be allowed 70 take

Nicot refused TO accept these conditions It
was finally arranged that the principals

that the distance between them should be
twenty instead Of thirty PAGES, az IS usual
at such encounters. NJ. NIcot was as.
sisted by N. Mermelx, OF the France, and

place at the end OF the island, In full view
OF The bridge, where a number OF persons
